From: Oliver Schinagl <oliver@schinagl.nl>

Changes from v1:
* Renamed the sys-fs exported key to eeprom, since it really a read-only eeprom
* Removed mention of sun[67]i since we haven't tested those
* Fixed up mistakes in comments
* Removed PAGE_SIZE references, since this is a binary only driver
* Removed lookup table and calculate offsets better
* Use proper endianess
* Add the SID to seed the kernel entropy pool
* Rewrite probe to use platform_get_resource/devm_ioremap_resource instead


The Allwinner A-series of SoC's have efuses exposed via registers to read the
factory programmed e-fuses. These should in theory be programmable but this is
still to be confirmed. It does appear that these fuses are unique enough to be
used as serial numbers, RSA keys, generate MAC addresses from etc. If it turns
out to be user programmable, the use obviously increases. Allwinner did use the
fuses initially to determine the chip-type.

This driver supports all currently known chips based on datasheets and 'dumped'
drivers that we have so far, the dts is only implemented for known chips.

It has been tested on a Cubieboard 1

This is my very first driver so please try to be gentle

Allwinner has electric fuses (efuse) on their line of chips. This driver
reads those fuses, seeds the kernel entropy and exports them as a sysfs node.

These fuses are most likly to be programmed at the factory, encoding
things like Chip ID, some sort of serial number etc and appear to be
reasonable unique.
While in theory, these should be writeable by the user, it will probably
be inconvinient to do so. Allwinner recommends that a certain input pin,
labeled 'efuse_vddq', be connected to GND. From the name however it is
highly likly that this name is the programming voltage, required to
write these fuses.
Even so, they can still be used to generate a board-unique mac from, board
unique RSA key and seed the kernel RNG.

Currently supported are the following known chips:
Allwinner sun4i (A10)
Allwinner sun5i (A13)

We have an include file called linux/io.h.  Please use linux/*.h files which
include asm/*.h files in preference to directly using asm/*.h.

In fact, no driver should include an asm/*.h header.

What happens if you unbind the device in sysfs and then try and use
this function?

Maybe you want to set p_sid_reg_base to NULL here?

So what happens if you have two of these devices?  Maybe you want to check

Do we really need to report that the driver "loaded successfully" ?
Do we need lots of lines in the kernel log telling us simply that
random driver X was built into the kernel or the module was loaded?

And I didn't have that there, but it kept refusing to find ioread32be. 
Of course, now I change it back to linux/io.h (which I had, I swear) and 
all works swell.

Concider it changed.

Usually ret variable is located at the end of definition block.
Moreover, there is no relationship between those three. It means one

Please, be consistent, somewhere you still use &pdev->dev.
I recomend to use &pdev->dev everywhere in probe(), since we don't
know if the device will be probed successfully.

While I accidentally dropped the pointer here, sorry for the confusion,

Wikipedia mentions it as a software development thing, but you make it

Why? I know there's conflicting preferences here. The general consensus 
seems, don't return mid function if you don't absolutely have to. Yet, 
you make it sound, just return wherever. I take it that really is just a 
preference? I think i see both constructs throughout the kernel. So one 
review prefers the one method, the next the other?

Does it hurt however in any way though? It's just a compiler

In this case instead of doing...

if (likely(condition)) {
 do_smth();
}
do_very_few_ops();
return;

...better to do

if(unlikely(!condition)) {
 do_very_few_ops();
 return;
}

do_smth();
return;

It takes more lines of code, but increases readability a lot.

Usually it makes sense when you have to free resources or do something
like that. You have plain return statement under exit label.

>>> +       ret = device_create_bin_file(dev, &sid_bin_attr);

It hurts readability. probe() function is usually doesn't require
fastest execution. Moreover, [1] tells us "You should use it only in
cases when the likeliest branch is very very very likely, or when the
unlikeliest branch is very very very unlikely."

There also an article [2] about cache issues. Bad usage of the
likely/unlikely macros might lead to performance degradation (cache
misses). You have to think about those macros really carefully.

Hello all,

While waiting/working in comments I realized/was reminded that there 
where a few things I hadn't addressed. I'll try to go over all the 
missing bits to be sure to answer all questions before submitting the 
hopefully final version. This because I wouldn't want anybody to think 
I'm ungrateful, because I am very much so.

I had to think a while about it, as my first answer was 'i don't know'. 
But yeah you can't without some smart trick that I don't yet know.

The idea behind the global pointer is, to have sunxi_sid_read_byte() be 
usable without anything other then a memory offset/address of what byte 
you want to read. The idea behind that is that you can use it from 
within the kernel directly. I'll admit it's a future-proofing thing, 
it's not exported now as there is no user for it yet. I talked to Maxime 
about it and we (he) decided it's best to remove it for now, as we can 
always add it back later when we find a user for it.

Having two SID's however is almost impossible too, since you get 1 per 
SoC, and only 1 SoC per kernel? I added a guard in .probe() which only 
loads the driver if the pointer is NULL.

It goes kaboom. Again, i had no idea naturally. I think what you meant 
was, if you unbind and p_sid_reg_base points to 'somewhere' and we just 
randomly read bytes. I added p_sid_reg_base to the guard above to at 
least check if it's not NULL.

Yeah, that made even more sense to the above thing and added it. When we 
unbind or unload the driver, we point to NULL and a) can check for it 
above and don't have nasty things dangling around. I think it was save 
to assume, that when the driver is unloaded/unbound, the devm_set_data() 
private data gets cleaned and the pointer set to NULL? I think that's 
what Maxime/Emilio said, by using the devm stuff, those should get 
cleaned up properly.

Even that hint didn't trigger me as to why this could cause problems. 
Userspace guy here, every driver has its own memory space right? So I've 
added a guard that we only load this driver once and only if 
p_sid_reg_base is NULL.

Don't we do that already though? I made the string more informative by 
adding version information, but yeah I see tons of 'all is ok' rolling 
by, isn't that a good thing? Isn't that only printed if we actually have 
a SID onboard, so the user knows 'sid is available'. I know I often 
scroll through dmesg to see if things got brought up nicely.

While this is a really small function, I guess if that's the normal 
course of things; why not.

With ret removed, I assume having return (u8)sid_key; is okay? Does that

That's a good rule to group variables with, I should have known. Done.

I would have thought that 'dev' would that it would be the same and valid,
but yes, I should have been consistent throughout. What bothers me here,
is that I actually managed to overlook it.

Hello all,

While waiting/working in comments I realized/was reminded that there 
where a few things I hadn't addressed. I'll try to go over all the 
missing bits to be sure to answer all questions before submitting the 
hopefully final version. This because I wouldn't want anybody to think 
I'm ungrateful, because I am very much so.

and related (with the struct killed and the mem* renamed)

I had to think a while about it, as my first answer was 'i don't know'. 
But yeah you can't without some smart trick that I don't yet know.

The idea behind the global pointer is, to have sunxi_sid_read_byte() be 
usable without anything other then a memory offset/address of what byte 
you want to read. The idea behind that is that you can use it from 
within the kernel directly. I'll admit it's a future-proofing thing, 
it's not exported now as there is no user for it yet. I talked to Maxime 
about it and we (he) decided it's best to remove it for now, as we can 
always add it back later when we find a user for it.

Having two SID's however is almost impossible too, since you get 1 per 
SoC, and only 1 SoC per kernel? I added a guard in .probe() which only 
loads the driver if the pointer is NULL.

It goes kaboom. Again, i had no idea naturally. I think what you meant 
was, if you unbind and p_sid_reg_base points to 'somewhere' and we just 
randomly read bytes. I added p_sid_reg_base to the guard above to at 
least check if it's not NULL.

Yeah, that made even more sense to the above thing and added it. When we 
unbind or unload the driver, we point to NULL and a) can check for it 
above and don't have nasty things dangling around. I think it was save 
to assume, that when the driver is unloaded/unbound, the devm_set_data() 
private data gets cleaned and the pointer set to NULL? I think that's 
what Maxime/Emilio said, by using the devm stuff, those should get 
cleaned up properly.

Even that hint didn't trigger me as to why this could cause problems. 
Userspace guy here, every driver has its own memory space right? So I've 
added a guard that we only load this driver once and only if 
p_sid_reg_base is NULL.

Don't we do that already though? I made the string more informative by 
adding version information, but yeah I see tons of 'all is ok' rolling 
by, isn't that a good thing? Isn't that only printed if we actually have 
a SID onboard, so the user knows 'sid is available'. I know I often 
scroll through dmesg to see if things got brought up nicely.

While this is a really small function, I guess if that's the normal 
course of things; why not.

With ret removed, I assume having return (u8)sid_key; is okay? Does that 
typecast only return the last byte? Or do we still want & 0xff in the 
return added for clarity?
